🇬🇧 Rufus Wainwright made waves as a singer-songwriter with several successful CDs. The artist of American-Canadian parents also shows his love for classical music and opera. On Sunday, March 17, he will play his most beautiful songs live with the Brussels Philharmonie. For his show, his self-written opera Hadrian will also be performed by the Brussels Philharmonic and five great soloists.
🇳🇱 Rufus Wainwright maakte furore als singer-songwriter met diverse succesvolle cd’s. De artiest van Amerikaans-Canadese ouders toont daarin ook zijn liefde voor klassieke muziek en opera. Op zondag 17 maart speelt hij live met het Brussels Philharmonie zijn mooiste liedjes. Voor zijn show zal ook zijn zelfgeschreven opera Hadrian worden opgevoerd door het Brussels Philharmonie en vijf geweldige solisten.
🇬🇧 Get ready for an audiovisual trip with larger than life video images and an atmospheric, neoclassical soundtrack performed by the fastest pianist in the world and a cellist extraordinaire. The End of the World is a collaboration between Ukrainian pianist Lubomyr Melnyk, Canadian cellist Julia Kent (Anohni & The Johnsons) and the Turin audiovisual collective SPIME.IM. A combination of acoustic music, live electronics and impressive images merge together. An immersive, multimedia live experience that celebrates the beauty of nature while dramatically portraying the environmental challenges facing our planet.
🇳🇱 Maak je klaar voor een audiovisuele trip met larger than life videobeelden en een sfeervolle, neoklassieke soundtrack gebracht door de snelste pianist ter wereld en een celliste extraordinaire. The End of the World is een samenwerking tussen de Oekraïense pianist Lubomyr Melnyk, de Canadese celliste Julia Kent (Anohni & The Johnsons) en het Turijnse audiovisuele collectief SPIME.IM. Een combinatie van akoestische muziek, live elektronics en indrukwekkende beelden, smelten samen. Een overweldigende, multimediale live-ervaring die de schoonheid van de natuur viert, en tegelijk een dramatische weergave oplevert van de ecologische uitdagingen waarmee onze planeet geconfronteerd wordt.
Een van de absolute hoogtepunten van Birds of Paradise 2023 was de samenwerking tussen LUWTEN en het Belgische barokensemble B.O.X. De laatste kans om hen samen de prachtige liedjes van Luwten te horen en zien vertolken is op vrijdag 15 september in Het Concertgebouw Amsterdam. Kaarten zijn nu verkrijgbaar via https://www.concertgebouw.nl/luwten-box
The American band @Son Lux combines electropop, chamber music, post-rock, hip-hop beats and a good dose of experimental drive into a unique and layered avant-pop sound. You could also see Son Lux as a sound laboratory in which music is deconstructed down to the molecule and then reassembled with surprising rhythms, orchestral arrangements and idiosyncratic sounds. Live, this leads to a mesmerizing experience. All led by Ryan Lott, who started Son Lux in 2008 as a solo project and expanded the project into a trio in 2014. The concept 'album' is also interpreted in its own way by Son Lux: the trilogy Tomorrows was released in 2020 and 2021, in 2022 the 49-track soundtrack of the film Everything Everywhere All At Once! 🎥
Ryan Lott has also regularly contributed to tracks and releases by Brooklyn-based Holland Andrews in recent years. Rules, featuring Nils Frahm is Andrew's most recent single, out on Frahm's own record label LEITER. Andrews composes, produces, plays clarinet and has a unique vocal technique: from grunt to classical vocals and everything in between. ✨
Combining polyrhythmic layered electronics with contemporary classical percussion, Jlin has been a whirlwind of innovation in the musical landscape throughout the past years. But Jerilynn Patton never struts too far away from organic, classical sounds: that’s why the Dutch Ragazze Quartet and the Grammy-winning, Chicago-based percussion outfit Third Coast Percussion bring Jlin’s tracks to the world of chamber music. First, the Ragazze Quartet will perform Little Black Book, originally commissioned by the Kronos Quartet, followed by the world premiere of Jlin’s Summon for string quartet and percussion. After that, Third Coast Percussion will perform a 7-piece suite entitled Perspective. The composer herself can be heard in the grand finale of the event: a live set featuring selected works from Akoma (The heart): a performative installation she will craft together with visual artist Florence To.
Please welcome a new flock of birds for our second installment! 👋
Between 15 and 19 March 2023, they will land in Utrecht (TivoliVredenburg) and… Antwerp. With this second edition, the festival also lands for two days (17 and 18 March) in DE SINGEL International Arts Centre, the renowned Antwerp art house that embraces differences and builds bridges between art disciplines and genres. ✨
